Pickled Carrots and Daikon Radish...This recipe is super easy to make and doubles up as a side dish or as accompaniment to any sandwich. Sometimes I have carrots in my vegetable drawer that need to be used. This is a great dish to make and to have on hand for all sorts of dishes. I love the fact that I can make it ahead use it throughout the week....the flavor does intensify the longer it sits.

You can make just a carrot pickle ...or you can combine it with some daikon radish. The pickle is great on various sandwiches (Vietnamese Banh Mi, Asian flavored burgers, Falafel pita sandwich, etc). I'll be sharing with you 2 types of sandwiches that I made using this pickle....coming soon. But there are many uses...just be creative. It's so great to be able to use something other than lettuce on your sandwich....using pickled vegetables brings in a ton of flavor and sure makes for a different sort of sandwich. You can make the pickle spicy or skip the hot peppers altogether. And, if you like your pickle on the sweeter side, add a bit more sugar. Of course, you can easily add various herbs to make it different. Sometimes, I like it simple. Hope you enjoy....

Ah man, I love the pickled daikon's they serve at a local vietnamese restaurant, but can't seem to find them at Whole Foods -- I wonder if I'd find them at a Farmers Market out this way, I'll have to look now.

BOW THE KNEE

There are moments on our journey following the LordWhere God illumines ev’ry step we take.There are times when circumstances make perfect sense to us,As we try to understand each move He makes.When the path grows dim and our questions have no answers, turn to Him.

Chorus:Bow the knee;

Trust the heart of your Father when the answer goes beyond what you can see.Bow the knee;

Lift your eyes toward heaven and believe the One who holds eternity.And when you don’t understand the purpose of His plan,In the presence of the King, bow the knee.

There are days when clouds surround us, and the rain begins to fall,The cold and lonely winds won’t cease to blow.And there seems to be no reason for the suffering we feel;We are tempted to believe God does not know.When the storms arise, don’t forget we live by faith and not by sight.

HOW DEEP THE FATHER'S LOVE FOR US

How deep the Father's love for us

How vast beyond all measure

That He should give His only Son

To make a wretch His treasure

How great the pain of searing loss

The Father turns His face away

As wounds which mar the Chosen One

Bring many sons to glory

Behold the man upon a cross

My sin upon His shoulders

Ashamed, I hear my mocking voice

Call out among the scoffers

It was my sin that held Him thereUntil it was accomplishedHis dying breath has brought me lifeI know that it is finishedI will not boast in anythingNo gifts, no power, no wisdomBut I will boast in Jesus ChristHis death and resurrectionWhy should I gain from His reward?I cannot give an answerBut this I know with all my heartHis wounds have paid my ransomWhy should I gain from His reward?I cannot give an answerBut this I know with all my heartHis wounds have paid my ransom
